It sucks when people get offended when I don't take their advice, but advice is perspective not really asking the other person to decide for me. If that makes sense.

In your case you were giving good advice, that ultimately would do good, but not all advice is such.

Just my two cents
I think what most here are frustrated with is us giving good sound advice, and people not listening. Like my baby is vomiting what should I do? We say vet, then they come back days later, oh he's ok. Or I want to breed my dog, good idea? Or does this website that sells 10 different breeds look like a good place for me to get my new micro mini teacup? That kind of stuff.

However, I do know what you mean when you actually want a different perspective, and you yourself are already somewhat knowledgeable about the subject. For example, just today, I asked bf what size drill bit I should use for this project I'm working on. He says this one, then I say no I like this one better. I asked bc I thought he would know more than I do, but it turns out he doesn't.
